Description

Clenbuterol 40 mcg – 100 Tablets

Composition

Each tablet contains 40 micrograms (mcg) of Clenbuterol hydrochloride, a sympathomimetic amine with bronchodilator and thermogenic properties. Inactive ingredients include microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, and dicalcium phosphate.

Description

Clenbuterol is primarily used to treat chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma and COPD. It acts as a bronchodilator, easing breathing by relaxing the airway muscles. Though not FDA-approved for human use in the U.S., Clenbuterol is used in some countries and in veterinary medicine. Due to its stimulant and fat-burning properties, it is sometimes used off-label for weight management or athletic performance, though such use poses risks.

Pharmacological Action

Clenbuterol stimulates beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the bronchial smooth muscle, leading to muscle relaxation and airway dilation. It also increases basal metabolic rate, enhances thermogenesis, and may promote mild anabolic activity. These properties make it effective as a respiratory aid and a controversial agent in fitness circles.

Indications

Approved medical uses include:

• Treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• Asthma symptom management

Off-label uses (not medically recommended):

• Weight loss
• Fat burning
• Performance enhancement

Contraindications

• Known hypersensitivity to Clenbuterol or excipients
• Tachyarrhythmia or severe cardiovascular disorders
• Concomitant use with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs)

Dosage and Administration

Dosing must be individualized and managed by a healthcare provider. Treatment typically begins with a low dose to assess tolerance. Tablets are administered orally with water. Cycle-based regimens are common in non-medical contexts, though not recommended without supervision.

Side Effects

Common side effects:

• Palpitations
• Tremors or shaking
• Headache
• Nervousness or anxiety
• Nausea

Severe side effects:

• Hypertension
• Cardiac arrhythmias
• Myocardial infarction (rare)
• Seizures (in overdose cases)

Precautions

• Monitor heart rate and blood pressure regularly during use
• Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, or hyperthyroidism
• Discontinue use if experiencing chest pain, severe tremors, or breathing difficulties

Interactions

• Beta-blockers may antagonize the effects of Clenbuterol
• Increased risk of arrhythmia when used with cardiac glycosides
• MAOIs may potentiate sympathomimetic effects

Always consult a healthcare professional before combining medications.

Overdose

Symptoms of overdose include tremors, tachycardia, high blood pressure, chest pain, and potentially seizures. Immediate emergency medical care is required in such cases.

Storage

• Store at 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F)
